Dhanalakshmi v. The District Collector

O R D E R Challenging the order passed by the second respondent in Mu.Mu.A2/4795/2015 dated 15.10.2015 cancelling the assignment of the land to the petitioner, the present Writ Petition has been filed.

¶2The petitioner was assigned with the land in Survey No.30/50 at Alamarathupatti Village on 27.09.1983. Thereafter, by the impugned order, dated 15.10.2015, the second respondent has cancelled the assignment on the ground that the petitioner has failed to put up a house as per the condition.

¶3Admittedly, no such condition has been imposed at the time of assignment in the assignment order. Moreover, the petitioner was not provided with an opportunity of hearing. Hence, the impugned order passed by the second respondent in Mu.Mu.A2/4795/2015 dated

15.10.2015 is set aside.

¶4Accordingly, this Writ Petition is allowed. There shall be no order as to costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is also closed.
